This one is a must-listen.

I sat down with licensed psychologist Dr. Ali Greco, founder of Para-thera.com, for a real, honest talk about something we all deal with—anxiety.

We covered:

• What anxiety actually is (not just the buzzword version)

• Why so many people feel stuck or overwhelmed

• Simple, real-life ways to calm your mind

• When to get help—and how to know you're not alone

If you've ever laid in bed with your thoughts racing, felt panicked for no reason, or just wanted a breather from life—this episode is for you.

You don’t have to figure it all out on your own.

Dr. Greco breaks it down in a way that’s smart, practical, and seriously helpful.
